Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh, tart rhubarb. If your rhubarb is too sweet, you may need to add a little bit of lemon juice to the filling.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crust tough.
- Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and work surface.
- If you don't have a pastry blender, you can use a food processor to mix the dough. Just be sure to pulse the ingredients until they are well combined, but not overmixed.
- When baking the bars, keep an eye on them so that they don't overcook. The bars are done when the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let the bars cool completely before cutting them into squares. This will help prevent the bars from falling apart.

Rhubarb dream bars are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With their sweet and tart filling and buttery crust, these bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give rhubarb dream bars a try!
